An Unexpected Romance

Leave a comment

For Heather Grimstock, an unforeseen turn of events allows her to move in society. Although she is expected to make a good match when she comes of age, she begins to have feelings for someone she’s known almost all her life. Unfortunately, if she confesses her attraction, she risks losing his friendship forever.

For Myles King, his early childhood was full of loss—until a strange girl came to rescue him from loneliness. Years later, even as his graduation looms, he yearns for a simpler time when he felt carefree. He dreads change, but when it is finally forced upon him, he realizes the person who is most dear to him is right under his nose.

Unfortunately, a secret from the past may destroy their chance of happiness…unless an unexpected romance can work a miracle.

An Unexpected Romance (Book Four of the Graceling Hall Series) will be released Tuesday, December 10th, but you can pre-order it now at a special price HERE.

The Vanishing Beauty • Pre-Release

Leave a comment

Book Three of the Graceling Hall Series will be released on September 24th. To celebrate, I have updated the covers of Books One and Two.

The Vanishing Beauty

Lee Grimstock’s gritty past as a street urchin has contributed to the success of his mystery novels. When he is obliged to take in his incorrigible niece, however, he is hard-pressed to raise her properly. He cannot seem to keep a governess—until Josephine Wilkes crosses his path.

Desperate to find work, Josie accepts the position Lee Grimstock offers. Unfortunately, since her prospective employer despises the theater, she feels obliged to hide her time on the stage. His publisher’s daughter has designs on Lee, however, and the new governess is in her way. By hook or by crook, Miss Pilgrim will do whatever it takes to separate the two, without any qualms whatsoever.

When Josie’s past catches up to her, she disappears into the mean streets of Victorian-era London. Lee sets out to track down the vanishing beauty…and finds romance along the way.

The Vanishing Beauty is available at a special pre-release price of $0.99 (regularly $3.99), so order your Kindle copy HERE now!

The sole survivor of a train accident, young Larken Burke is dubbed the Miracle Orphan. Four years later, however, her life is far from fortunate. Because of her emotional and physical scars, she believes she’s not marriageable. With little hope for the future, she agrees to wed a gentleman she’s never met. Unfortunately, his aloof manner proves difficult to bear.

Marked by romantic tragedy and the loss of his brother, Brandon King has forsworn marriage. Obliged to take in a ward, he advertises for a bride to raise the boy. Since the union is to be a marriage in name only, his criteria are youthful age, a certain level of intellect, good breeding, and that the girl shouldn’t be so ill-favored she would embarrass him in society. To his dismay, he gets more than he’d bargained for.

Will it take a miracle for Mr. and Mrs. King to fall in love, or is their marriage another accident waiting to happen?
